What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured, evidence-based therapy that helps the brain reprocess traumatic or deeply distressing experiences. Using bilateral stimulation—such as guided eye movements—EMDR works by reducing the emotional intensity of painful memories while strengthening healthier, more adaptive responses.

Research shows EMDR can have a significant impact on trauma recovery, especially when past events continue to influence emotions, thoughts and behaviours. It can be helpful for trauma, PTSD, anxiety, phobias, grief, and other overwhelming life events.
If you’ve experienced something that still feels “unprocessed,” a trained EMDR therapist can help determine whether this modality is the right fit for you.

It’s Holiday Smile Cookie Week at Tim Hortons, and 100 percent of proceeds go directly to local charities that support meaningful programs in our community. To join the spirit of giving, our operations team surprised our incredible admin team with a box of Holiday Smile Cookies as a heartfelt thank-you for the work they do every single day.

Their dedication keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes, and this small gesture was a sweet way to recognize the impact they make across our organization.

A little gratitude, a little icing, and a whole lot of smiles.

How to Reframe Your Negative Self-Talk

Negative self-talk can become a quiet but persistent barrier to confidence, motivation, and emotional well-being. When those automatic thoughts show up, pausing to notice them, questioning the evidence behind them, and responding with compassion can help shift your mindset in a healthier direction.

Reframing does not mean ignoring your feelings. It means giving yourself the same understanding and kindness you would offer someone you care about. With practice, supportive self-talk can become a powerful tool for reducing stress and strengthening resilience.

If negative thoughts are impacting your daily life, speaking with a trained mental health professional can help you learn personalized strategies for managing them.

Facing Fear Through Play

Fear is a natural part of growing up — but what if, instead of avoiding it, children could learn to face it in a safe and supportive way? That’s the idea behind scary play, a therapeutic approach that blends play and exposure to help kids explore fear in small, manageable doses.

By engaging in activities like telling spooky stories, acting out pretend scary scenes, or watching lighthearted “scary” shows, children can practice emotional regulation in a setting that feels fun and controlled. This gentle exposure helps them understand that fear doesn’t have to be overwhelming — it’s something they can navigate and recover from.

Over time, scary play can help reduce anxiety, improve confidence, and teach children valuable coping skills that transfer into real-life challenges. It gives them the opportunity to experiment with bravery and discover their own ability to manage difficult emotions.

Our Story

Insight Psychological and Family Support Services was the original name for Insight Psychological Inc., which was originally established in 1997 as a partnership by two psychologists and best friends Cory Hrushka and Sean Rogers. After 10 years of practice, Mr. Rogers followed his desire to teach and be a professor. Mr. Hrushka opened up Insight under the new name Insight Psychological Inc. in 2007 and moved the practice to the current location at #203-9148-23 Avenue where he has expanded the practice to include four administrative staff and approximately 14 contractors who service Edmonton and the surrounding area.

Insight has continued to expand over the last few years, more than doubling its size and services and looks forward to its continued growth and success in providing a valuable service to the city and community. Currently, Insight Psychological Inc. has an office in Red Deer, Alberta and plans to continue its growth and is currently underway extending its practice into Calgary.

In 2007, as a service to the community, Insight Psychological Inc. has taken on Masters degree practicum students to allow low-income or uninsured clients access to quality counseling under a sliding fee scale. This program continues to grow and thrive.

Currently, Insight Psychological Inc. provides services to:
